Have you ever dreamed of owning a neighborhood bar, or perhaps a brewery? Right now, both are available in Columbia, MD. Hysteria Brewing Company is for sale. And the old 2nd Chance Saloon location is available for rent. Please note, I have no financial interest in either of these properties.

Hysteria Brewing Company

Hysteria is still operational with reduced hours. Their new hours are:

• Monday – Thursday Closed
• Friday 3-11 PM
• Saturday 12-7 PM
• Sunday 12-7 PM

Hysteria has had a long run, holding their grand opening on July 11, 2017. Known for their tasty Trash Panda and cozy taproom, this brewery has been a Columbia staple for almost 7 years. You can find past links from this blog below:

• Hysteria Grand Opening
• Hysteria Labor Day Weekend Bash
• Hysteria Brewing is Official
• Happy Birthday, Hysteria
• Hysteria’s new hours
• NFL Squelches Hysteria’s MVP

Hysteria’s asking price is $699,000 with $200,000 down. Visit Hysteria for Sale to learn more.

2nd Chance Saloon

The 2nd Chance Saloon was my neighborhood bar for years; 12 years to be exact. Sadly, it closed in 2020. Below are links to some 2nd Chance memories:

• Columbia Pub Crawl
• 2021 Columbia Pub Crawl
• The First Columbia Pub Crawl
• The 21st of September
• A Soggy Crawl
• 2nd Chance Holiday Extravaganza
• 2nd Chance to Close

But there is hope. Klein Enterprise, the landlord of the Oakland Mills Village Center, is looking to rent the property. Find out more about this Oakland Mills location.

Cheers!
